There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy, as growth velocity (statural growth), of rhIGF-I/rhIGFBP-3 administered for 12 months in pre-pubertal children and adolescents with GHIS. STUDY DESIGN This study is an open-label, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of rhIGF-I/rhIGFBP-3 to increase rate of growth when administered once daily for 12 months in children and adolescents with growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS) such as Laron Syndrome. At the end of the initial twelve-month treatment period, additional safety and long-term efficacy data will be assessed in a second 12 month treatment period.
Managed detoxification is a first and necessary step prior to treatment and rehabilitation. Detoxification can be a major obstacle for some patients, and the availability of managed and safe withdrawal is a prerequisite for long-term treatment. In our clinical practice we have felt the need for a standardised and safe detoxification treatment regimen for our opioid addicts, as dependence on multiple drugs is so common. Objectives 1. To assess whether a novel standardised treatment regimen - Buprenorphine (BPN) combined with Valproate (VPA) - will result in fewer withdrawal symptoms during detoxification of opiate–polydrug users than the existing treatment regimen, i.e. Clonidine (CLN) combined with Carbamazepine (CBZ). 2. To determine whether there are differences in treatment retention between the BPN/VPA and the CLN/CBZ groups. 3. To assess differences in clinical side-effects and biochemical interactions between the two treatment regimens.
Patient Population: Patients with AF that is symptomatic and refractory to at least one antiarrhythmic medication. Patients must have AF that is paroxysmal (>4 episodes within 6 months, two episodes >6 hours within 1 year) or persistent (sustained episode <6 months terminated by cardioversion or drug). Purpose: To compare a trigger-based technique (pulmonary vein isolation) to a substrate-based technique (high-frequency, fractionated EGMs) to a combined approach for AF ablation
This is a randomized, double-blind trial looking at how nutrition intake is associated with labor progress and complications.
This trial was conducted in Europe, Middle East, North America and South America. The aim of this trial was to compare the use of an intensified insulin treatment with insulin aspart (NovoRapid®) versus human insulin (Actrapid®) in pregnancy.
To determine if ZD6474 a new investigational drug, is effective in treating Non Small Lung Cancer and if so, how it compares with another type of anti cancer therapy chemotherapy, Erlotinib
The purpose of this study is to compare different types of rehabilitation after coronary bypass surgery. The investigators wish to compare rehabilitation in an institution for four weeks with a home based rehabilitation. They also wish to compare rehabilitation in an institution for four weeks with a rehabilitation program were the patients live at home but visit the hospital twice a week for twelve week. The investigators will measure the patients' physical capacity by measuring their maximal oxygen consumption. The investigators will also analyze their blood and their endothelian function (how well their arteries dilate).
To investigate if self-inserted vaginal misoprostol prior to outpatient hysteroscopy will lead to satisfactory cervical ripening, compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg BAY59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and prevents blood clot which may form after a knee replacement operation.
This is a comparator study to assess the relative efficacy of the combination product fluticasone propionate/salmeterol 50/500 and tiotropium bromide on the rate of exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) over a two year study interval.
